Pendergrast mentioned that citrate caffein 1 oz, extract vanilla 1 oz, F.E. coco 4 oz, citric acid 3 oz, lime juice 1 quart, sugar 30lbs, water 2.5 gallons
caramel sufficient are the essential ingredients required to make the drink with flavouring like oil orange 80, oil lemon 120, oil nutmeg 40, oil cinnamon 40, oil coriander 20, oil neroli 40, alcohol 1 quart stood for 24 hours.
